Second wheel looks more difficult to clean.
Then again, thats what I think about when I see nice wheels. Maybe with EBC Greenstuff pads you could use either. Sorry if not much help.

Ps . I would not use Yoko's.....Considered toyo T1-s

I have never seen a good review of the Yoko A520. In the wet, they can have 20 METRES further stopping distance from 70 m.p.h. compared to the Bridgstone S-02s. They were considerd old technology 2 years ago.
